He's Home

Steve is back! We have all been so anxious for him to come home from his mission. Two years has seemed liked FOREVER! It was so exciting to watch him come down the stairs at the airport. He looks great! It was the first time Steve met Haley, and my older brother's little boy Gavin. The kids fell instantly in love with him. And the brother's/brother-in-law got him right into action. There were plenty of games to watch on T.V., ping-pong challenges, some tennis tournaments, and Scott organized a flag football game for Saturday morning. Nothing like getting the body back in to shape! We love Steve and are so happy to have him home!

Halloween Fun

We had a great time celebrating Halloween in Utah. It was nice, because it wasn't as cold as it normally is during this time of year. The kids loved Trick-or-Treating! Tyler dressed up as a "Fireman", which he was so proud of. He told us that if he were down with the fires in Southern California, he would put on his fireman outfit and put all of the fires out! He honestly watched the news every night to see what was going on with the fires.
Haley was a witch. And, when asked what she was, Haley told everyone she was a "Cute Witch"! We put make-up on her, which she absolutely loved! She kept asking for more purple on her eyes. She is definitely a girl!

Moving on to…3

I am getting excited, because we are leaving tomorrow for Utah. My little brother is FINALLY coming home from his mission in Warsaw, Poland. We are going to be up there for Halloween, and so I will try to get some pictures posted of the kids in their costumes. They are so excited to go Trick-or-Treating! Before I left, I wanted to post a little update on our family. Yes, the rumors are true, I am pregnant with our third! We are very excited, especially Tyler and Haley. When we told Tyler, we were driving in the car. Here was our conversation:

Me: “Tyler, Mommy is going to have another baby.”

Tyler: “You are? That is so sad.”

Me: Thinking and panicking to myself, “Oh my gosh! He doesn’t want another brother or sister.” I asked, “Why is it so sad?”

Tyler: “ Because Mommy, it is so hard to push them out!”

So cute! I told him he was such a sweetheart for caring. I think he has been listening to me tell about my horrifying delivery with him a little too much! He is very excited though, and he is SURE it is a Boy. He only wants a brother. I know there are many pregnant friends right now to sympathize with me on this - The first part of pregnancy STINKS! I am getting really tired of feeling so gross. Hopefully now that I am 12 weeks it will slowly start getting better and I will have more energy! I am due at the beginning of May. It should be a fun summer at the Fuller Home!

We've got a Mission...

Haley, waiting for her party to start!

…To Celebrate Haley’s Birthday! She turned 2 years old today. It is hard to believe that she has been in our lives for 2 years already. She has the sweetest, yet spunkiest, little personality. She brings so much life and excitement into our home, and we love her so much!

For her birthday this year, we had a “Little Einstein’s” party. We actually had her party last Saturday, and so you can imagine her surprise when we woke up singing Happy Birthday to her, again! 2 birthdays for a big 2 year old! She walks around saying, “Happy Birday Hadey!” It is so darn cute! My parents are the best, and drove down last weekend to help with the party. We love you guys! We made little T-shirts for each child with their name on it, took them on a balloon hunt, had pizza, and the Best Part of All…. Mine and my Mom’s invention of the “Rocket Cake”! It looks a little pink, but it was still cute!

Haley is such a little jumper and tumbler, that for her birthday, we got her a little trampoline that she can bounce on all she wants. She is in heaven! Happy Birthday Haley!! We LOVE YOU!
